Who are we?

If you’ve been living under a rock, you may not have heard of us.

We may be 12 years into our mission to make refreshing Iced Coffee available in great fridges across the UK and beyond, but we still operate with the same ethos as when we started; an authentic, fun, passionate brand that makes refreshing ready-to-drink Iced Coffee, whilst always aiming to be better for the people and the planet.

The job

As a Field Sales Merchandiser, you will work alongside a superb team, across a fantastic range of RTD Iced Coffee products through key retail channels, both national retailers and local independent outlets.
